4-HYDROXY-2-METHYLBENZOIC ACID 98 Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Chemical Properties

White or pink crystalline powder

Definition

ChEBI: 4-hydroxy-2-methylbenzoic acid is a hydroxybenzoic acid.

Synthesis

6245-57-4

578-39-2

General procedure for the synthesis of 4-hydroxy-2-methylbenzoic acid from 4-methoxy-2-methylbenzoic acid: boron tribromide (20 mmol, 5 g, 10 eq.) was slowly added to a solution of 4-methoxy-2-methylbenzoic acid (2 mmol, 0.332 g) in dichloromethane (20 mL) under argon protection. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature until high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis showed complete consumption of the feedstock. Subsequently, 0.1 M hydrochloric acid (20 mL) was added to the reaction system to quench the reaction and the insoluble material was removed by filtration. The aqueous phase was concentrated under reduced pressure and the residue was dissolved in methanol and concentrated again under reduced pressure to remove the solvent. This dissolution-concentration process was repeated three times, resulting in purified 4-hydroxy-2-methylbenzoic acid as a yellow solid (0.24 g, 80% yield).
